False Spring Trail Runs : March 21, 2026, LaPorte, IN
The event offers two distances:
- Half
- 10K

Course, policies, and participant info
Trails are well-established dirt single-track with winding switchbacks and multiple views of lakes and ponds. The trail system is split into two sides: one loop of about 2 miles and another loop of more than 4 miles. The course is not flat and is expected to include climbs; personal records are unlikely.
The organizer accepts entrants' declared gender and provides Male, Female, and Non-Binary registration options. Every participant receives a custom finisher award; the top three male and female finishers at each distance receive podium awards. The event includes youth pricing for runners 19 and under, with reduced fees for the 10K, Half, and a Half Relay category; a limited number of free youth entries are available by request. A fund is available to waive registration fees for participants who cannot afford them. Participants who become pregnant after registering or who have a recent newborn may defer their entry for up to two years, subject to the event's deferral policy.
